Accuribbon* Fanout
The Accuribbon* Fanout is a pre-connectorized assembly
which can be mechanically or fusion spliced to 12 fiber
ribbon for termination in the fiber distribution frame. The
12 fiber AT&T Accuribbon* is separated into individual
fibers which are protected with 1.7 mm PVC tubing and
terminated with connectors.
The Accuribbon* fiber is transitioned through a small
plastic module. The terminated ends of the fibers are spaced
24 or 48 inches from the fanout module. The length of
Accuribbon* extending from the module is specified by the
customer.

ribbonized fiber. This splicing system is ideal for
Accuribbon* Fanout installations with a minimum
